A rollercoaster has lots of energy chugging down the track. The amout that it has at the begining of the rollercoaster is that it has no GPE, because it is not really off of the ground yet. The amout of KE it has is a lot because like I said it has not really left the ground yet so it has to be KE. The amout of GPE it has at point 1 is a great big amount, because it is at its highest point that it could be on tha whole ride.Next I need to inform you that point 1 has no KE because it is not close enough to the ground to have KE. CHUGA, CHUGA,CUGA on tho our next stop. At point #4 there is just a little less GPE than there was at point 1. It doesn't have any KE because it is off the ground not on it like it was at the begining of the ride. It's GPE is still a pritty good size compared to the last one,and at the last one it was all the GPE it could possibly get on the whole ride. Now let's stop thinking of science for just a minute and think just about the rollercoaster. Think....... your going up into the loop on the rollercoaster........ your heart pumping as fast as it can go,and you knowing that there is no going back it is to late........Okay now back to science, but don't think that the rollercoaster won't be fun any more. So now we are just ariving at point #6. This point doesn't have much GPE but it doesn't have the lowest amount of GPE the lowest amount of GPE is point #2. This point does have a little bit of KE but not to much. That is the amounts of GPE and KE on the points 0,1,4, and 6. BEP!!!! " We will now be leaving the GPE rollercoaster have a nice day."
